Shower tray repair near Low Leven

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Shower tray repair in Low Leven, done in place

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chips or cracks by the plughole.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Low Leven

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Low Leven. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

FAQs for Low Leven

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Low Leven?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TS17 postcode.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Do you need shower tray repair in Low Leven?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
